[cobirds] RMBO @CBR, El Paso Co, Friday Winter Wren

Hi COBirders,

Another good turnover last night, and we collected good numbers of birds from beginning to end. The Bird-of-the-Day was an FOS  Winter Wren, maybe only the second occasion we've caught them at Chico Basin Ranch. Photos available.  Full report to follow.

There was a large arrival of thrushes, even at dawn, and the same mixed warblers, (mostly Wilson's), and several Empids again, with Hammond's, Least, Western,  and Dusky Flycatchers, and a couple WW Pewees.  105 new banded birds today, 50+ were Wilson's Warblers,  That's over 1000 birds for the season now, and probably 325+ Wilson's Warblers.

Good Birding,
